政府无所作为，加上有可能在不安全的条件下被迫重新工作，导致越来越多的人呼吁在9月1日开始大罢工。
To the dismay of many Americans, Congress and the Senate adjourned until September, meaning that any coronavirus relief package is still, at least, many weeks away. As a result, a growing number of Americans are calling for a general strike, the topic trending on social media this weekend. The Senate will not return until September 8, although
现在是时候看看Rashida Tlaib与领先的亲以色列组织之间令人不安的关系了。
There has been much euphoria over the Michigan primary win on Tuesday that sets up Palestinian American Rashida Tlaib to become the first Muslim woman to enter Congress if, as widely expected, she wins the general election in November. “As the child of immigrants and an Arab, Tlaib is acutely aware of the issues that impact our community,” the

These were the words of Democratic Senator Jeanne Shaheen at February’s prestigious Munich Security Conference, in a panel discussion on whether President Obama should have used military force against the Syrian government in 2013.
